I’m incredibly excited to share that my project, Griffin, took home 1st Place in Colombia, Best ElevenLabs Integration, #4 in LATAM, and #20 Worldwide out of 360+ global projects!
Griffin is an adversarial security platform built to stress-test AI agents on Solana.

Did you know our oldest partner is a picture of a dog?
Our friends and provenance experts at @ownthedoge + @wowstudioapp created this Bitcoin Pizza Day series to help tell the story that inspired the Global Pizza Party.
Presenting Part 1: Laszlo’s Pizza 💰
380+ projects were submitted for the @dev3pack global hackathon
We hosted this hackathon with a small budget, but created a global movement, online and IRL in 40+ local hubs, even in bear market. The community showed up not for prizes, but for collaboration, learning, building startups, and getting recognized.
We wanted to bring our own audience, and managed to onboard 4K+ applicants from 84 countries and 1,700+ universities. For most of them, it was their first hackathon ever!
The hackathon became one of the biggest student onboarding initiatives on @solana. Their official student hackathon had around 90 submitted projects, with a different budget.
The secret? Infrastructure and community.
In just a few weeks, with @armolas_06 & @zintarh_dev, we built a cool platform to support the entire hackathon experience, from participation to event coordination. More than 150 people helped organize this movement. Huge thanks to all of them! The energy from emerging markets is unmatched.
Many participants are already pushing their projects further, forming teams, and taking the lead in their local ecosystems. Every project received AI deep feedback and recommendations (product, technical) thanks to @bonfiresai
Today it's an exciting day for all of them, as we are opening our global accelerator with @solana to support their founder journey 🫡
nobody talks about how lonely it feels to be excited about tech when the people around you don’t get it. that’s why finding your community changes everything #tech
24, still in uni, already patching vulnerabilities in open source software. not saying this to flex. saying it because a year ago i didn’t think i was ready either. you’re more ready than you think. #AI#growth

One interesting finding from building Griffin: The "Polyglot" attacker is surprisingly effective. Most AI agents have semantic guardrails, but they completely fall apart when the same malicious intent is wrapped in Base64 or obfuscated XML.
@SebMontgomery Currently working on Griffin, is an automated, adversarial security platform that stress-tests AI agents on Solana and immutably registers vulnerabilities on-chain!
We’re trusting autonomous AI agents with live mainnet wallets, yet we’re still managing their keys like it's 2021. Remember… Sticking a base58 private key in a .env file for a Python script isn't security !!

Local fee markets on Solana don't get enough credit. The fact that a massive NFT mint or a meme coin frenzy doesn't halt the entire network anymore is the actual engineering moat, tbh predictable execution > raw speed

This is the first step toward building a decentralized, verifiable threat registry for the AI agent ecosystem.

Feedback from builders and security researchers is highly appreciated. #Solana#AISEC
Autonomous AI agents on Solana are scaling fast, but the infrastructure to secure their on-chain interactions is lagging.
For the @colosseum Frontier Hackathon, I built Griffin: an adversarial security platform for AI agents. Built from scratch in 48 hours. 🧵👇
